Finnish technology website iO-Tech has a supposed price list for three 8th-gen CPUs: the four-core, four-thread Core i3-8350K ($199), the six-core, six-thread Core i5-8600K ($299), and the range-topping six-core, 12-thread Core i7-8700K ($420). The rumored October 5 launch date is again mentioned.
The launch prices of numerically comparable chips appear to have increased by 19% to 25% depending on model, though Intel’s per-region pricing isn’t always a simple currency conversion. We reported about a similar price leak at a Canadian e-tailer just a couple of weeks ago. The leaked Canadian pricing also suggested price increases, though their magnitude was smaller.
